The former Shakhtar Donetsk star played a key part as the Selecao were knocked out in the quarter finals by Belgium.

Willian made his first appearance for Chelsea since returning in yesterday’s 2-0 Community Shield defeat to Manchester City at Wembley.

Speaking after the game, he insisted that he is not looking to leave his current club while mentioning Barca's attempts to sign him.

"I'm a Chelsea player," he told ESPN. "I always made it clear that what I wanted was to stay in the club.

Jorginho has certainly given the impression he could become a fans' favourite at Chelsea

“The only club I knew that really made an official offer for me was Barcelona”

"The only club I knew that really made an official offer for me was Barcelona.

“But I have my head here and I intend to continue in the club unless the club wants to sell me. But my head is here in the club."

Coming on as a substitute in the 59th minute for Callum Hudson-Odoi, Willian was unable to spark any life into Maurizio Sarri’s team.

"Without doubt, we all like this style of play, all the players," he added. "We have to do all we can to keep improving.

"Of course, the beginning is always a little more difficult to adapt to a new style of play, which changes everything, but we have everything we need to improve, to continue working and start the season well."

Sarri has so far brought in midfielder Jorginho from Napoli and goalkeeper Rob Green on a free transfer.

After replacing former boss Antonio Conte so late in the summer, the Italian will surely have been hoping to have concluded more business by now.

Sarri will at least be hoping to at least keep hold of the players that he already has at his disposal.

Along with Willian, Eden Hazard and Thibaut Courtois have also been heavily linked with moves away from the club.

The transfer window for Premier League sides to bring in new players is Thursday at 5pm, although other teams in Europe are able to make signings until August 31.

Chelsea travel to Huddersfield for their first game of the season on Saturday.
